The Roman Epic abounds in moral and poetical defects; nevertheless it remaine
the most complete picture of the national mind at its highest elevation, the
most precious document of national history, if the history of an age is revealed
in its ideas, no less than in its events and incidents. - REV. C. MEBIVALE.
History of the Romans under the Empire, c. xli

RIGHT REVEREND WILLIAM BACON STEVENS, D.D., LL.D.,

MY DEAR BISHOP:

BISHOP OF PENNSYLVANIA.

I desire to connect your name with whatever may be useful and valuable in this work, to show my high appreciation of your fervent piety, varied learning, and elegant literary accomplishments; and, also, far more than this, to record the personal acknowledgment that no man ever had a more constant, judicious, generous and affectionate brother, than you have been to me, for forty years of intimate and unbroken association.

Most affectionately and faithfully yours,

HENRY COPPÉE.
